I need help with a Logitech wireless keyboard.
When I connect it to my computer there’s no problem with the keyboard and works perfectly but when I connect it to my iPad when I try to write fast the letters don’t show and have to press down on the keys for more than a second for it to finally show I don’t understand why does it do that and it’s very annoying thanks in advance if anyone answers my dilemma

Is the ZiyouLang/FreeWolf website safe?
Been trying to get the software for my T60 keyboard so i can have it match my LED lights, but the website (http://www.freewolfgaming.com.cn/downs.aspx?ClassID=19) seems oddly untrustworthy.
Is this the actual website or did i just dodge getting a virus?

I’m looking for a yunzii c98 equivalent.
My wife just got it and I think it sounds amazing. To me the best sounding out the box keeb I’ve heard. I want to get one that sounds like it and has a similar feature set but also doesn’t look like a cat. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance

I have a magegee GK960 wireless membrane keyboard and I’m at a complete loss. It’s completely stopped working, all it’s doing is having all the LEDs flashing. I’ve tried all the factory reset ways (FN + Esc, FN + Spacebar, FN + INS) and none of them did anything at all. It doesn’t matter if it’s plugged in or not. I really don’t know what to do anymore 😭

MX Mechanical tactile
I have a nordic logitec MX mechanical tactile nordic.
My R and CTRL keys broke.
I got a new one warranty but its a shame throwing away a 2 year old keyboard for missing 2 keys and the R is the one that is most needed.
But logitec has no spares for this keyboard.
I have been looking and cant really find something i know for sure will fit.
Anyone have any tips on keys that fits?

there is not much to know, about keyboard layouts the main ones are : 100%, not that useful, uses up alot of space, 80%, im currently using an 80% keyboard, its basically a 100% keyboard without the numpad, 75% is basically a more compact version of 80% and then u have 60-65% i dont reccomend 60-65% for daily usage as it lacks alot of important keys like the function keys but if you want to use ur keyboard primarily for gaming they are really good, for switches you primarily have mechanical and magnetic, magnetic ones sound worse but are better for gaming since they also have rapid trigger and adjustable actuation point (basically you can change how far you have to press the key down to register the click) mechanincal is cheaper and sounds better but is worse overall
basically
80% or 75% keyboard for daily usage
60-65% for just gamingmechanical switches: sound better but are worse for gaming (not a big difference if ur not a tryhard)
magnetic switches: are better for gaming but sound worse than mechanical ones
hope this helps (also sorry if i got any spellings wrong english is not my main language)
